[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sport is track and field. So it is straightforward in the sense that it is about times/distance.[/quote] Thank you for sharing. Do T&F athletes train throughout the entire school year or do they have down time during which they can take a more intense course-load ?[/quote] It doesn't really work like that. Winter track overlaps fall and spring semesters, then they roll right into spring track. Definitely talk to the coaches about their expectations. Even for sprinters, coaches usually want them working out throughout the XC season so that they show up in shape for winter. That said, my kid talked to a couple of coaches who said they "de-emphasize" a season for each kid -- basically, prioritize one so that they can do the harder workouts then, and use a different season to maintain a base and maybe travel a bit less.
